This report presents Native American interpretations of and concerns for plant resources on or near Yucca Mountain, Nevada. This is one of three research reports regarding Native
American cultural resources that may be affected by site characterization activities related to the Yucca Mountain high -level radioactive waste disposal facility.
Representatives of the sixteen involved American Indian tribes identified and interpreted
plant resources as part of a consultation relationship between themselves and the U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE). This report integrates data from the ethnobotanical fieldwork and visits conducted over a three -week period. The bulk of this report divides plants into their logical components: plant parts used; places where used; purposes of uses; and persons who used, do use, and will use the plants. The remainder of this Introduction is devoted to conveying an American Indian holistic perspective on plants as a part of the world.
